To Just Be


To Just Be

I don’t experience this type of pain first hand
I don’t know what it feels like to be pushed deeper into the dark
Farther into my closet, farther away from the truth
But movies, shows, videos, stories explain the pain some cannot understand.

How do these kids, teens, adults face cruelty about something they hadn’t planned
Why are there people who make these beautiful individuals go stark?
People who are so angry they punish anyone who seems different
People that are trying to make others feel as irrelevant as a grain of sand.

No one deserves to feel like they cannot be themselves
As Ash states there are three rules in life:
Be Authentic. Be Direct. Be Unapologetic.
These rules all point to one thing.

Why does one person feel they are that much better that they can destroy lives
Innocent lives that are now scarred
With cuts and marks that will never heal
Some so extreme that they never got the chance.

There is an opportunity to fight this
It must be stopped
Because no one should be punished for just trying to live out the three rules
To just be.
